Or how about:
LIS-AKL is 12192mi (using Circle Mapper)
Now we're literally approaching halfway around the world!</font>
AKL-MAD is almost as far and can be done with 2 flights on TG AKL-BKK and BKK-MAD. But with 2 transits along the way (in SYD and FCO) the flight is slightly longer.
BTW, AKL-AGP is slightly longer at 12393 miles
